[@KaiNotebook]

(wow, kai finally uploading on time?) jokes aside, i hope you guys find these tips useful! i know they are quite simple but that's why they're also so important. they're important on setting a strong foundation to your school year. since most of you guys are on vacation right now, i hope these tips can help you have an easier time in school next year :) i'll be posting a dedicated study guide video soon, in that video i'll really explain the different study techniques and habits you can develop to help raise your grades and scores :) anyway, i hope you guys enjoy! much love~

[@samuelpoiriermartinsson6852]

Every year of school, after break I’ve said “Next term I’m going to be an academic weapon of mass destruciton”, then I watch all these videos and shit, then i just forget after 2 hours of school and chill. Somehow I always wind up above average. Works for me :)

[@DiamondNds]

😂 that's what happens to me too. And even if I remember,I become lazy af😅

[@AlexanderCook-h7u]

Same here. Although sometimes I’m not as far above average as I’d like 😂

Its been a long time since I've been the academic weapon,this will help me pick up from the ground❤

[@KaiNotebook]

let's gooo, the comeback is real!

[@nickreasol3331]

It’s so true how some students get top scores in lecture exams but in laboratory or practical exams they do not that excel as well compared in lecture based on my observation as a physical therapy student. Body mechanics a very important skill that needs to be mastered in our field. Even if one knows all detailed information,if they are not able to apply and properly execute the actions that are needed to perform in real life or in practical exams, then it would really affect their laboratory grades~

[@KaiNotebook]

practical skills are so important indeedd

[@Aelirius]

I think it's pretty obvious that theoretical knowledge isn't going to help you out there if you don't know how to apply it in reality in a practical way. That is why both complement each other, knowledge helps you to be able to do the practical correctly and the practical helps you to put the knowledge into practice.

I’m going into freshman after summer and I needed this because I want to start off strong with a 4 point GPA or higher (I have all advanced classes, although it does make it harder if I do well in those classes than the normal classes I will gain an amazing GPA), and later join a medical course that’s offered in my high school for sophomore.

This way once i begin college I’ll hopefully not drag my unorganized ass around all the time like in Highschool.

Yet if I switch to economics I'll hate myself for dropping science... but I don't aee any other way out, I know the exercises are deliberately hard but I can't stand going another 2 months where I can't do a single exercise and where I just don't love and hate the new way of writing in physics IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO UNDERSTAND

[@gaboubap]
